Radiation-Driven Stellar Eruptions

Kris Davidson • Galaxies (2020)

Very massive stars occasionally expel material in colossal eruptions, driven by continuum radiation pressure rather than blast waves. Some of them rival supernovae in total radiative output, and the mass loss is crucial for subsequent evolu...

Ruling Out Compact Jets as the Dominant Source of Radio Emission in Radio-quiet, High-Eddington-ratio Active Galactic Nuclei

Jeremiah D. Paul, Richard M. Plotkin • The Astrophysical Journal (2026)

The origin of core radio emission in radio-quiet active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is still actively debated. General-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics simulations often predict the launching of moderately large-scale jets from super-Eddington ...

Not All Sub-Neptune Exoplanets Have Magma Oceans

Bodie Breza, Matthew C. Nixon, Eliza M.-R. Kempton • The Astrophysical Journal Letters (2025)

The evolution and structure of sub-Neptunes may be strongly influenced by interactions between the outer gaseous envelope of the planet and a surface magma ocean. However, given the wide variety of permissible interior structures of these p...

Effects of Background Solar Wind and Drag Force on the Propagation of Coronal-mass-ejection-driven Shocks

Chin-Chun Wu, Kan Liou, Brian E. Wood, Lynn Hutting • The Astrophysical Journal (2024)

The propagation of interplanetary shocks, particularly those driven by coronal mass ejections (CMEs), is still an outstanding question in heliophysics and space weather forecasting. Here, we address the effects of the ambient solar wind on ...
